I hear people ask – How much does an Occupational Health and Safety Professional earn. It is an important question though, after all, money is a motivation factor; more money more motivation.
I want to state here clearly that Occupational Health and Safety Professionals salary varies based on industry, organization, years of experience, staff level, risk involved, etc.
Hence, two (2) organizations involved in the same specialty may not pay the same salary to occupational health and safety professionals of the same level (Based on expertise and level of experience). This is what gives way to a range in talking about the salary of an Occupational Health and Safety professional.
In this article, I will highlight the range of pay for occupational health and safety professions using different references and portfolios.
